Personal Note

For those who were trying to reach me at my personal email this weekend, I apologize I didn’t answer and that was because I was hacked.

I found out from a phone call from someone who got the phony email from my account that it was one of those I am in Spain deals and I need money. Rest assured, I am OK and no, I never set foot in Spain but as always I appreciate your concern.

In light of this, I want to give you this email to contact me and that is YanksJetsSJU@hotmail.com.

As you can see from that email address, there is a perfectly good reason why I am a sports writer and that's because I am just a plain old sports junkie.

So please, keep those good tidbits coming and I hope you are enjoying your summer.
